 ## Available MCP Tools
 
-The extensions register these tools that Claude can (theoretically) call:
+The VS Code extension registers 12 tools that Claude can call. Here's the complete specification:
 
-### Core Tools
+### 1. openFile
 
-1. **openFile** - Open a file and optionally select text
+**Description**: Open a file in the editor and optionally select a range of text
 
-   ```json
-   {
-     "filePath": "/path/to/file.js",
-     "startText": "function hello", // Find and select from this text
-     "endText": "}" // To this text
-   }
-   ```
+**Input**:
 
-2. **openDiff** - Show a diff and wait for user action (blocking!)
+```json
+{
+  "filePath": "/path/to/file.js",
+  "preview": false,
+  "startText": "function hello",
+  "endText": "}",
+  "selectToEndOfLine": false,
+  "makeFrontmost": true
+}
+```
+

+**Notes**:
 
-3. **getCurrentSelection** - Get the current text selection
-4. **getOpenEditors** - List all open files
-5. **getWorkspaceFolders** - Get project folders
-6. **getDiagnostics** - Get errors/warnings from the IDE
-7. **saveDocument** - Save a file
-8. **close_tab** - Close a tab by name (note the inconsistent naming!)
+- All code executed will persist across calls unless the kernel is restarted
+- Avoid declaring variables or modifying kernel state unless explicitly requested
+- Only available when working with Jupyter notebooks
+- Can return multiple content types including text output and images
 
 ### Implementation Notes
 
 - Most tools follow camelCase naming except `close_tab` (uses snake_case)
-- The `openDiff` tool is unique - it's **blocking** and waits for user interaction
+- The `openDiff` tool is **blocking** and waits for user interaction
 - Tools return MCP-formatted responses with content arrays
-- There's also `executeCode` for Jupyter notebooks in the VS Code extension
+- All schemas use Zod validation in the VS Code extension
+- Selection-related tools work with the current editor state

+" Claude can open files, show diffs, and more
+```
 
 ## Usage
 
 1. **Launch Claude**: Run `:ClaudeCode` to open Claude in a split terminal
 2. **Send context**:
    - Select text in visual mode and use `<leader>as` to send it to Claude
-   - In `nvim-tree` or `neo-tree`, press `<leader>as` on a file to add it to Claude's context
+   - In `nvim-tree`/`neo-tree`/`oil.nvim`, press `<leader>as` on a file to add it to Claude's context
 3. **Let Claude work**: Claude can now:
    - See your current file and selections in real-time
    - Open files in your editor
    - Show diffs with proposed changes
    - Access diagnostics and workspace info
 
-## Commands
-
-- `:ClaudeCode [arguments]` - Toggle the Claude Code terminal window (simple show/hide behavior)
-- `:ClaudeCodeFocus [arguments]` - Smart focus/toggle Claude terminal (switches to terminal if not focused, hides if focused)
-- `:ClaudeCode --resume` - Resume a previous Claude conversation
-- `:ClaudeCode --continue` - Continue Claude conversation
-- `:ClaudeCodeSend` - Send current visual selection to Claude, or add files from tree explorer
-- `:ClaudeCodeTreeAdd` - Add selected file(s) from tree explorer to Claude context (also available via ClaudeCodeSend)
-- `:ClaudeCodeAdd <file-path> [start-line] [end-line]` - Add a specific file or directory to Claude context by path with optional line range
-- `:ClaudeCodeDiffAccept` - Accept the current diff changes (equivalent to `<leader>aa`)
-- `:ClaudeCodeDiffDeny` - Deny/reject the current diff changes (equivalent to `<leader>ad`)
-
-### Toggle Behavior
-
-- **`:ClaudeCode`** - Simple toggle: Always show/hide terminal regardless of current focus
-- **`:ClaudeCodeFocus`** - Smart focus: Focus terminal if not active, hide if currently focused
-
-### Tree Integration
-
-The `<leader>as` keybinding has context-aware behavior:
+## Key Commands
 
-- **In normal buffers (visual mode)**: Sends selected text to Claude
-- **In nvim-tree/neo-tree/oil.nvim buffers**: Adds the file under cursor (or selected files) to Claude's context
-
-This allows you to quickly add entire files to Claude's context for review, refactoring, or discussion.
-
-#### Features
-
-- **Single file**: Place cursor on any file and press `<leader>as`
-- **Multiple files**: Select multiple files (using tree plugin's selection features or visual selection in oil.nvim) and press `<leader>as`
-- **Smart detection**: Automatically detects whether you're in nvim-tree, neo-tree, or oil.nvim
-- **Error handling**: Clear feedback if no files are selected or if tree plugins aren't available
-
-### Direct File Addition
-
-The `:ClaudeCodeAdd` command allows you to add files or directories directly by path, with optional line range specification:
-
-```vim
-:ClaudeCodeAdd src/main.lua
-:ClaudeCodeAdd ~/projects/myproject/
-:ClaudeCodeAdd ./README.md
-:ClaudeCodeAdd src/main.lua 50 100    " Lines 50-100 only
-:ClaudeCodeAdd config.lua 25          " Only line 25
-```
-
-#### Features
-
-- **Path completion**: Tab completion for file and directory paths
-- **Path expansion**: Supports `~` for home directory and relative paths
-- **Line range support**: Optionally specify start and end lines for files (ignored for directories)
-- **Validation**: Checks that files and directories exist before adding, validates line numbers
-- **Flexible**: Works with both individual files and entire directories
+- `:ClaudeCode` - Toggle the Claude Code terminal window
+- `:ClaudeCodeFocus` - Smart focus/toggle Claude terminal
+- `:ClaudeCodeSend` - Send current visual selection to Claude
+- `:ClaudeCodeAdd <file-path> [start-line] [end-line]` - Add specific file to Claude context with optional line range
+- `:ClaudeCodeDiffAccept` - Accept diff changes
+- `:ClaudeCodeDiffDeny` - Reject diff changes
 
 ## Working with Diffs
 
-When Claude proposes changes to your files, the plugin opens a native Neovim diff view showing the original file alongside the proposed changes. You have several options to accept or reject these changes:
-
-### Accepting Changes
-
-- **`:w` (save)** - Accept the changes and apply them to your file
-- **`<leader>aa`** - Accept the changes using the dedicated keymap (configured in LazyVim spec)
-
-You can edit the proposed changes in the right-hand diff buffer before accepting them. This allows you to modify Claude's suggestions or make additional tweaks before applying the final version to your file.
-
-Both methods signal Claude Code to apply the changes to your file, after which the plugin automatically reloads the affected buffers to show the updated content.
+When Claude proposes changes, the plugin opens a native Neovim diff view:
 
-### Rejecting Changes
+- **Accept**: `:w` (save) or `<leader>aa`
+- **Reject**: `:q` or `<leader>ad`
 
-- **`:q` or `:close`** - Close the diff view to reject the changes
-- **`<leader>ad`** - Reject changes using the dedicated keymap (configured in LazyVim spec)
-- **`:bdelete` or `:bwipeout`** - Delete the diff buffer to reject changes
-
-When you reject changes, the diff view closes and the original file remains unchanged.
-
-### Accepting/Rejecting from Claude Code Terminal
-
-You can also navigate to the Claude Code terminal window and accept or reject diffs directly from within Claude's interface. This provides an alternative way to manage diffs without using the Neovim-specific keymaps.
-
-### Customizing Diff Keymaps
-
-The diff keymaps are configured in the LazyVim spec and can be customized by modifying the `keys` table:
-
-```lua
-{
-  "coder/claudecode.nvim",
-  config = true,
-  keys = {
-    -- ... other keymaps ...
-
-    -- Customize diff keymaps to avoid conflicts (e.g., with debugger)
-    { "<leader>ya", "<cmd>ClaudeCodeDiffAccept<cr>", desc = "Accept diff" },
-    { "<leader>yn", "<cmd>ClaudeCodeDiffDeny<cr>", desc = "Deny diff" },
-
-    -- Or disable them entirely by omitting them from the keys table
-  },
-}
-```
-
-The commands `ClaudeCodeDiffAccept` and `ClaudeCodeDiffDeny` work only in diff buffers created by the plugin and will show a warning if used elsewhere.
-
-### How It Works
-
-The plugin uses a signal-based approach where accepting or rejecting a diff sends a message to Claude Code rather than directly modifying files. This ensures consistency and allows Claude Code to handle the actual file operations while the plugin manages the user interface and buffer reloading.
-
-#### Examples
-
-```vim
-" Add entire files
-:ClaudeCodeAdd src/components/Header.tsx
-:ClaudeCodeAdd ~/.config/nvim/init.lua
-
-" Add entire directories (line numbers ignored)
-:ClaudeCodeAdd tests/
-:ClaudeCodeAdd ../other-project/
-
-" Add specific line ranges
-:ClaudeCodeAdd src/main.lua 50 100        " Lines 50 through 100
-:ClaudeCodeAdd config.lua 25              " Only line 25
-:ClaudeCodeAdd utils.py 1 50              " First 50 lines
-:ClaudeCodeAdd README.md 10 20            " Just lines 10-20
-
-" Path expansion works with line ranges
-:ClaudeCodeAdd ~/project/src/app.js 100 200
-:ClaudeCodeAdd ./relative/path.lua 30
-```
+You can edit Claude's suggestions before accepting them.
 
 ## How It Works
 
 This plugin creates a WebSocket server that Claude Code CLI connects to, implementing the same protocol as the official VS Code extension. When you launch Claude, it automatically detects Neovim and gains full access to your editor.
 
-### The Protocol
-
-The extensions use a WebSocket-based variant of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) that only Claude Code supports. The plugin:
+The protocol uses a WebSocket-based variant of MCP (Model Context Protocol) that:
 
 1. Creates a WebSocket server on a random port
 2. Writes a lock file to `~/.claude/ide/[port].lock` with connection info
 3. Sets environment variables that tell Claude where to connect
 4. Implements MCP tools that Claude can call

+### Test Organization Principles
+
+- **Isolation**: Each test should be independent and not rely on external state
+- **Mocking**: Use comprehensive mocking for vim APIs and external dependencies
+- **Coverage**: Aim for both positive and negative test cases, edge cases included
+- **Performance**: Tests should run quickly to encourage frequent execution
+- **Clarity**: Test names should clearly describe what behavior is being verified
+
+## Authentication Testing
+
+The plugin implements authentication using UUID v4 tokens that are generated for each server session and stored in lock files. This ensures secure connections between Claude CLI and the Neovim WebSocket server.
+
+### Testing Authentication Features
+
+**Lock File Authentication Tests** (`tests/lockfile_test.lua`):
+
+- Auth token generation and uniqueness validation
+- Lock file creation with authentication tokens
+- Reading auth tokens from existing lock files
+- Error handling for missing or invalid tokens
+
+**WebSocket Handshake Authentication Tests** (`tests/unit/server/handshake_spec.lua`):
+
+- Valid authentication token acceptance
+- Invalid/missing token rejection
+- Edge cases (empty tokens, malformed headers, length limits)
+- Case-insensitive header handling
+
+**Server Integration Tests** (`tests/unit/server_spec.lua`):
+
+- Server startup with authentication tokens
+- Auth token state management during server lifecycle
+- Token validation throughout server operations
+
+**End-to-End Authentication Tests** (`tests/integration/mcp_tools_spec.lua`):
+
+- Complete authentication flow from server start to tool execution
+- Authentication state persistence across operations
+- Concurrent operations with authentication enabled
+
+### Manual Authentication Testing
+
+**Test Script Authentication Support**:
+
+```bash
+# Test scripts automatically detect and use authentication tokens
+cd scripts/
+./claude_interactive.sh  # Automatically reads auth token from lock file
+```
+
+**Authentication Flow Testing**:
+
+1. Start the plugin: `:ClaudeCodeStart`
+2. Check lock file contains `authToken`: `cat ~/.claude/ide/*.lock | jq .authToken`
+3. Test WebSocket connection with auth: Use test scripts in `scripts/` directory
+4. Verify authentication in logs: Set `log_level = "debug"` in config
+
+**Testing Authentication Failures**:
+
+```bash
+# Test invalid auth token (should fail)
+websocat ws://localhost:PORT --header "x-claude-code-ide-authorization: invalid-token"
+
+# Test missing auth header (should fail)
+websocat ws://localhost:PORT
+
+# Test valid auth token (should succeed)
+websocat ws://localhost:PORT --header "x-claude-code-ide-authorization: $(cat ~/.claude/ide/*.lock | jq -r .authToken)"
+```
+
+### Authentication Logging
+
+Enable detailed authentication logging by setting:
+
+```lua
+require("claudecode").setup({
+  log_level = "debug"  -- Shows auth token generation, validation, and failures
+})
+```
+
+Log levels for authentication events:
+
+- **DEBUG**: Server startup authentication state, client connections, handshake processing, auth token details
+- **WARN**: Authentication failures during handshake
+- **ERROR**: Auth token generation failures, handshake response errors
+
+### Logging Best Practices
+
+- **Connection Events**: Use DEBUG level for routine connection establishment/teardown
+- **Authentication Flow**: Use DEBUG for successful auth, WARN for failures
+- **User-Facing Events**: Use INFO sparingly for events users need to know about
+- **System Errors**: Use ERROR for failures that require user attention
+
 ## Development Notes
 
+### Technical Requirements
+
 - Plugin requires Neovim >= 0.8.0
 - Uses only Neovim built-ins for WebSocket implementation (vim.loop, vim.json, vim.schedule)
-- Lock files are created at `~/.claude/ide/[port].lock` for Claude CLI discovery
-- WebSocket server only accepts local connections for security
+- Zero external dependencies for core functionality
+
+### Security Considerations
+
+- WebSocket server only accepts local connections (127.0.0.1) for security
+- Authentication tokens are UUID v4 with enhanced entropy
+- Lock files created at `~/.claude/ide/[port].lock` for Claude CLI discovery
+- All authentication events are logged for security auditing
+
+### Performance Optimizations
+
 - Selection tracking is debounced to reduce overhead
+- WebSocket frame processing optimized for JSON-RPC payload sizes
+- Connection pooling and cleanup to prevent resource leaks
+
+### Integration Support
+
 - Terminal integration supports both snacks.nvim and native Neovim terminal
+- Compatible with popular file explorers (nvim-tree, oil.nvim)
+- Visual selection tracking across different selection modes

-## CRITICAL: Pre-commit Requirements
+## Development Workflow
+
+### Pre-commit Requirements
 
 **ALWAYS run `make` before committing any changes.** This runs code quality checks and formatting that must pass for CI to succeed. Never skip this step - many PRs fail CI because contributors don't run the build commands before committing.
+
+### Recommended Development Flow
+
+1. **Start Development**: Use existing tests and documentation to understand the system
+2. **Make Changes**: Follow existing patterns and conventions in the codebase
+3. **Validate Work**: Run `make` to ensure formatting, linting, and tests pass
+4. **Document Changes**: Update relevant documentation (this file, PROTOCOL.md, etc.)
+5. **Commit**: Only commit after successful `make` execution
+
+### Code Quality Standards
+
+- **Test Coverage**: Maintain comprehensive test coverage (currently 314+ tests)
+- **Zero Warnings**: All code must pass luacheck with 0 warnings/errors
+- **Consistent Formatting**: Use `nix fmt` or `stylua` for consistent code style
+- **Documentation**: Update CLAUDE.md for architectural changes, PROTOCOL.md for protocol changes

Subject: [PATCH 08/31] feat: complete MCP tools compliance with VS Code
 extension specs (#57)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

* feat: implement complete MCP tools compliance with VS Code extension specs

Complete implementation of MCP (Model Context Protocol) tool compliance by:
- Adding 2 missing tools from VS Code extension
- Converting all tool outputs to MCP-compliant format
- Exposing internal tools via MCP while preserving existing functionality
- Comprehensive test suite updates with robust JSON handling
- Updated documentation to reflect 100% VS Code compatibility

- **getLatestSelection**: Get most recent text selection (different from getCurrentSelection)
- **closeAllDiffTabs**: Close all diff-related tabs/windows with VS Code-compatible output format

All tools now return MCP-compliant format: `{content: [{type: "text", text: "JSON-stringified-data"}]}`

- **checkDocumentDirty**: Added schema for MCP exposure, success/failure JSON responses
- **saveDocument**: Added schema for MCP exposure, detailed success information
- **getWorkspaceFolders**: Added schema for MCP exposure, VS Code-compatible structure
- **getOpenEditors**: Restructured from `{editors: [...]}` to `{tabs: [...]}` with all VS Code fields
- **getCurrentSelection**: Enhanced with proper fallback behavior and MCP format
- **openFile**: Added missing parameters (preview, selectToEndOfLine, makeFrontmost, text selection)
- **closeTab**: Updated format while keeping internal-only (per Claude Code requirement)

- **Text Selection in openFile**: Full implementation of startText/endText pattern matching
- **Conditional Output**: openFile returns simple vs detailed responses based on makeFrontmost
- **Language Detection**: getOpenEditors includes proper languageId field mapping
- **Error Handling**: Comprehensive JSON-RPC error responses throughout

- **Robust JSON encoder/decoder**: Custom implementation supporting nested objects and special keys
- **Comprehensive test coverage**: All new tools with unit tests
- **Updated test expectations**: All existing tests adapted to MCP format
- **Format validation**: Tests verify exact VS Code extension compatibility

- **CLAUDE.md**: Complete rewrite of MCP tools section with 100% compliance status
- **Development Guidelines**: Added MCP tool development patterns and troubleshooting
- **Quality Standards**: Updated to reflect 320+ tests with 100% success rate
- **Protocol Compliance**: New section documenting VS Code extension feature parity

- **Backward compatibility**: No breaking changes to existing API
- **VS Code alignment**: Output formats match official VS Code extension exactly
- **Internal tools preserved**: close_tab remains internal as required by Claude Code architecture

- ✅ 320 tests passing (0 failures, 0 errors)
- ✅ All linting checks passing (0 warnings, 0 errors)
- ✅ Full MCP protocol compliance
- ✅ VS Code extension feature parity achieved

Change-Id: Ic1bd33aadb7fa45d64d4aba208acf37b2c9779cb
Signed-off-by: Thomas Kosiewski <tk@coder.com>

* fix: address PR review comments for MCP tools compliance

- Fix closeAllDiffTabs potential duplicate window closing by using set-based approach instead of array
- Add comprehensive test coverage for openFile parameters (makeFrontmost, preview mode, line/text selection)
- Update CLAUDE.md documentation to mention endLine parameter for openFile tool
- Enhance JSON encoder/decoder in test suite with proper escape sequence handling
- Add missing vim API mocks for complex openFile functionality testing

All 325 tests now pass with complete coverage of new MCP tool features.

Change-Id: I15bceb2bb44552205ea63c5ef1cb83722f7b5893
Signed-off-by: Thomas Kosiewski <tk@coder.com>

* fix: correct off-by-one indexing error in openFile text pattern search

Address Copilot review comment: when searching for endText pattern,
line_idx is already the correct 1-based index for the lines array,
so accessing lines[line_idx + 1] was incorrect.

Changed to lines[line_idx] to access the current line directly.

 4. **Document Changes**: Update relevant documentation (this file, PROTOCOL.md, etc.)
 5. **Commit**: Only commit after successful `make` execution
 
+### MCP Tool Development Guidelines
+
+**Adding New Tools**:
+
+1. **Study Existing Patterns**: Review `lua/claudecode/tools/` for consistent structure
+2. **Implement Handler**: Return MCP format: `{content: [{type: "text", text: JSON}]}`
+3. **Add JSON Schema**: Define parameters and expose via MCP (if needed)
+4. **Create Tests**: Both unit tests and integration tests required
+5. **Update Documentation**: Add to this file's MCP tools list
+
+**Tool Testing Pattern**:
+
+```lua
+-- All tools should return MCP-compliant format
+local result = tool_handler(params)
+expect(result).to_be_table()
+expect(result.content).to_be_table()
+expect(result.content[1].type).to_be("text")
+local parsed = json_decode(result.content[1].text)
+-- Validate parsed structure matches VS Code extension
+```
+
+**Error Handling Standard**:
+
+```lua
+-- Use consistent JSON-RPC error format
+error({
+  code = -32602,  -- Invalid params
+  message = "Description of the issue",
+  data = "Additional context"
+})
+```
+
 ### Code Quality Standards
 
-- **Test Coverage**: Maintain comprehensive test coverage (currently 314+ tests)
+- **Test Coverage**: Maintain comprehensive test coverage (currently **320+ tests**, 100% success rate)
 - **Zero Warnings**: All code must pass luacheck with 0 warnings/errors
+- **MCP Compliance**: All tools must return proper MCP format with JSON-stringified content
+- **VS Code Compatibility**: New tools must match VS Code extension behavior exactly
 - **Consistent Formatting**: Use `nix fmt` or `stylua` for consistent code style
 - **Documentation**: Update CLAUDE.md for architectural changes, PROTOCOL.md for protocol changes
+
+### Development Quality Gates
+
+1. **`make check`** - Syntax and linting (0 warnings required)
+2. **`make test`** - All tests passing (320/320 success rate required)
+3. **`make format`** - Consistent code formatting
+4. **MCP Validation** - Tools return proper format structure
+5. **Integration Test** - End-to-end protocol flow verification
+
+## Development Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+
+**Test Failures with LUA_PATH**:
+
+```bash
+# Tests can't find modules - use proper LUA_PATH
+export LUA_PATH="./lua/?.lua;./lua/?/init.lua;./?.lua;./?/init.lua;$LUA_PATH"
+busted tests/unit/specific_test.lua
+```
+
+**JSON Format Issues**:
+
+- Ensure all tools return: `{content: [{type: "text", text: "JSON-string"}]}`
+- Use `vim.json.encode()` for proper JSON stringification
+- Test JSON parsing with custom test decoder in `tests/busted_setup.lua`
+
+**MCP Tool Registration**:
+
+- Tools with `schema = nil` are internal-only
+- Tools with schema are exposed via MCP
+- Check `lua/claudecode/tools/init.lua` for registration patterns
+
+**Authentication Testing**:
+
+```bash
+# Verify auth token generation
+cat ~/.claude/ide/*.lock | jq .authToken
+
+# Test WebSocket connection
+websocat ws://localhost:PORT --header "x-claude-code-ide-authorization: $(cat ~/.claude/ide/*.lock | jq -r .authToken)"

+### Integration Testing with Fixtures
+
+When adding support for new integrations (file explorers, terminals, etc.), you **must** provide a fixture configuration for testing:
+
+**Requirements**:
+- Complete Neovim configuration in `fixtures/[integration-name]/`
+- Include plugin dependencies and proper setup
+- Add `dev-claudecode.lua` with development keybindings
+- Test all relevant claudecode.nvim features with the integration
+
+**Usage**:
+```bash
+# Source fixture aliases
+source fixtures/nvim-aliases.sh
+
+# Test with specific integration
+vv nvim-tree  # Start Neovim with nvim-tree configuration
+vv oil        # Start Neovim with oil.nvim configuration
+vv netrw      # Start Neovim with built-in netrw configuration
+
+# List available configurations
+list-configs
+```
+
+**Example fixture structure** (`fixtures/my-integration/`):
+```
+my-integration/
+├── init.lua                    # Main Neovim config
+├── lua/
+│   ├── config/
+│   │   └── lazy.lua           # Plugin manager setup

 scheduling (#21)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

* feat: add env configuration option

- Add env field to config for passing environment variables to Claude CLI
- Update init.lua to pass env variables when spawning Claude terminal
- Allows users to set custom environment like ANTHROPIC_API_KEY

🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code)

Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

* chore: remove trailing newlines and teminal cmd env var

* fix: properly schedule vim.notify and nvim_echo calls

* test: add missing env field to config test fixtures

Subject: [PATCH 12/31] docs: remove outdated IDE integration warning (#78)

The Claude Code IDE integration issues (#2299 and #2295) have been resolved
in newer versions. The latest Claude Code version (1.0.44) works properly
with IDE integrations, making the warning unnecessary and potentially
confusing for new users.

 **The first Neovim IDE integration for Claude Code** — bringing Anthropic's AI coding assistant to your favorite editor with a pure Lua implementation.
 
 > 🎯 **TL;DR:** When Anthropic released Claude Code with VS Code and JetBrains support, I reverse-engineered their extension and built this Neovim plugin. This plugin implements the same WebSocket-based MCP protocol, giving Neovim users the same AI-powered coding experience.

+### Custom Provider Example
+
+Here's a complete example using a hypothetical `my_terminal` plugin:
+
+```lua
+local my_terminal_provider = {
+  setup = function(config)
+    -- Store config for later use
+    self.config = config
+  end,
+
+  open = function(cmd_string, env_table, effective_config, focus)
+    if focus == nil then focus = true end
+
+    local my_terminal = require("my_terminal")
+    my_terminal.open({
+      cmd = cmd_string,
+      env = env_table,
+      width = effective_config.split_width_percentage,
+      side = effective_config.split_side,
+      focus = focus,
+    })
+  end,
+
+  close = function()
+    require("my_terminal").close()
+  end,
+
+  simple_toggle = function(cmd_string, env_table, effective_config)
+    require("my_terminal").toggle()
+  end,
+
+  focus_toggle = function(cmd_string, env_table, effective_config)
+    local my_terminal = require("my_terminal")
+    if my_terminal.is_focused() then
+      my_terminal.hide()
+    else
+      my_terminal.focus()
+    end
+  end,
+
+  get_active_bufnr = function()
+    return require("my_terminal").get_bufnr()
+  end,
+
+  is_available = function()
+    local ok, _ = pcall(require, "my_terminal")
+    return ok
+  end,
+}
+
+require("claudecode").setup({
+  terminal = {
+    provider = my_terminal_provider,
+  },
+})
+```
+
+The custom provider will automatically fall back to the native provider if validation fails or `is_available()` returns false.

+## Floating Window Configuration
+
+The `snacks_win_opts` configuration allows you to create floating Claude Code terminals with custom positioning, sizing, and key bindings. Here are several practical examples:
+
+### Basic Floating Window with Ctrl+, Toggle
+
+```lua
+local toggle_key = "<C-,>"
+return {
+  {
+    "coder/claudecode.nvim",
+    dependencies = { "folke/snacks.nvim" },
+    keys = {
+      { toggle_key, "<cmd>ClaudeCodeFocus<cr>", desc = "Claude Code", mode = { "n", "x" } },
+    },
+    opts = {
+      terminal = {
+        ---@module "snacks"
+        ---@type snacks.win.Config|{}
+        snacks_win_opts = {
+          position = "float",
+          width = 0.9,
+          height = 0.9,
+          keys = {
+            claude_hide = {
+              toggle_key,
+              function(self)
+                self:hide()
+              end,
+              mode = "t",
+              desc = "Hide",
+            },
+          },
+        },
+      },
+    },
+  },
+}
+```
+
+### Alternative with Meta+, (Alt+,) Toggle
+
+```lua
+local toggle_key = "<M-,>"  -- Alt/Meta + comma
+return {
+  {
+    "coder/claudecode.nvim",
+    dependencies = { "folke/snacks.nvim" },
+    keys = {
+      { toggle_key, "<cmd>ClaudeCodeFocus<cr>", desc = "Claude Code", mode = { "n", "x" } },
+    },
+    opts = {
+      terminal = {
+        snacks_win_opts = {
+          position = "float",
+          width = 0.8,
+          height = 0.8,
+          border = "rounded",
+          keys = {
+            claude_hide = { toggle_key, function(self) self:hide() end, mode = "t", desc = "Hide" },
+          },
+        },
+      },
+    },
+  },
+}
+```
+
+### Centered Floating Window with Custom Styling
+
+```lua
+require("claudecode").setup({
+  terminal = {
+    snacks_win_opts = {
+      position = "float",
+      width = 0.6,
+      height = 0.6,
+      border = "double",
+      backdrop = 80,
+      keys = {
+        claude_hide = { "<Esc>", function(self) self:hide() end, mode = "t", desc = "Hide" },
+        claude_close = { "q", "close", mode = "n", desc = "Close" },
+      },
+    },
+  },
+})
+```
+
+### Multiple Key Binding Options
+
+```lua
+{
+  "coder/claudecode.nvim",
+  dependencies = { "folke/snacks.nvim" },
+  keys = {
+    { "<C-,>", "<cmd>ClaudeCodeFocus<cr>", desc = "Claude Code (Ctrl+,)", mode = { "n", "x" } },
+    { "<M-,>", "<cmd>ClaudeCodeFocus<cr>", desc = "Claude Code (Alt+,)", mode = { "n", "x" } },
+    { "<leader>tc", "<cmd>ClaudeCodeFocus<cr>", desc = "Toggle Claude", mode = { "n", "x" } },
+  },
+  opts = {
+    terminal = {
+      snacks_win_opts = {
+        position = "float",
+        width = 0.85,
+        height = 0.85,
+        border = "rounded",
+        keys = {
+          -- Multiple ways to hide from terminal mode
+          claude_hide_ctrl = { "<C-,>", function(self) self:hide() end, mode = "t", desc = "Hide (Ctrl+,)" },
+          claude_hide_alt = { "<M-,>", function(self) self:hide() end, mode = "t", desc = "Hide (Alt+,)" },
+          claude_hide_esc = { "<C-\\><C-n>", function(self) self:hide() end, mode = "t", desc = "Hide (Ctrl+\\)" },
+        },
+      },
+    },
+  },
+}
+```
+
+### Window Position Variations
+
+```lua
+-- Bottom floating (like a drawer)
+snacks_win_opts = {
+  position = "bottom",
+  height = 0.4,
+  width = 1.0,
+  border = "single",
+}
+
+-- Side floating panel
+snacks_win_opts = {
+  position = "right",
+  width = 0.4,
+  height = 1.0,
+  border = "rounded",
+}
+
+-- Small centered popup
+snacks_win_opts = {
+  position = "float",
+  width = 120,  -- Fixed width in columns
+  height = 30,  -- Fixed height in rows
+  border = "double",
+  backdrop = 90,
+}
+```

 ## Custom Terminal Providers
 
 You can create custom terminal providers by passing a table with the required functions instead of a string provider name:

Subject: [PATCH 18/31] feat: add mini.files support (#89)

* fix: update coroutine context detection for Lua 5.4 compatibility

Fix openDiff blocking operations failing in test environment due to
incorrect coroutine context detection. In Lua 5.4, coroutine.running()
returns (thread, is_main) where is_main indicates if running in main
thread vs coroutine.

Changes:
- Update diff.lua: Fix open_diff_blocking coroutine check
- Update tools/open_diff.lua: Fix handler coroutine validation
- Update tests: Add proper mocking and expected error messages

* feat: add mini.files support to claudecode.nvim

Add mini.files integration following the same pattern as netrw support.
- Add _get_mini_files_selection() function to integrations.lua
- Support both visual selection and single file under cursor
- Add comprehensive test suite with 12 test cases
- Handle error cases and edge conditions gracefully

* feat: add multi-file visual selection support to mini.files integration

This update introduces support for visual mode multi-file selection in
mini.files integration. Users can now select multiple files in visual
mode and send them all to Claude Code at once.

* feat: add test fixture for mini.files

* refactor: replace duplicated dev config with symlink and remove unused variable

 - [Claude Code CLI](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code) installed
 - [folke/snacks.nvim](https://github.com/folke/snacks.nvim) for enhanced terminal support
 
+## Local Installation Configuration
+
+If you've used Claude Code's `migrate-installer` command to move to a local installation, you'll need to configure the plugin to use the local path.
+
+### What is a Local Installation?
+
+Claude Code offers a `claude migrate-installer` command that:
+
+- Moves Claude Code from a global npm installation to `~/.claude/local/`
+- Avoids permission issues with system directories
+- Creates shell aliases but these may not be available to Neovim
+
+### Detecting Your Installation Type
+
+Check your installation type:
+
+```bash
+# Check where claude command points
+which claude
+
+# Global installation shows: /usr/local/bin/claude (or similar)
+# Local installation shows: alias to ~/.claude/local/claude
+
+# Verify installation health
+claude doctor
+```
+
+### Configuring for Local Installation
+
+If you have a local installation, configure the plugin with the direct path:
+
+```lua
+{
+  "coder/claudecode.nvim",
+  dependencies = { "folke/snacks.nvim" },
+  opts = {
+    terminal_cmd = "~/.claude/local/claude", -- Point to local installation
+  },
+  config = true,
+  keys = {
+    -- Your keymaps here
+  },
+}
+```
+
+<details>
+<summary>Native Binary Installation (Alpha)</summary>
+
+Claude Code also offers an experimental native binary installation method currently in alpha testing. This provides a single executable with no Node.js dependencies.
+
+#### Installation Methods
+
+Install the native binary using one of these methods:
+
+```bash
+# Fresh install (recommended)
+curl -fsSL claude.ai/install.sh | bash
+
+# From existing Claude Code installation
+claude install
+```
+
+#### Platform Support
+
+- **macOS**: Full support for Intel and Apple Silicon
+- **Linux**: x64 and arm64 architectures
+- **Windows**: Via WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux)
+
+#### Benefits
+
+- **Zero Dependencies**: Single executable file with no external requirements
+- **Cross-Platform**: Consistent experience across operating systems
+- **Secure Installation**: Includes checksum verification and automatic cleanup
+
+#### Configuring for Native Binary
+
+The exact binary path depends on your shell integration. To find your installation:
+
+```bash
+# Check where claude command points
+which claude
+
+# Verify installation type and health
+claude doctor
+```
+
+Configure the plugin with the detected path:
+
+```lua
+{
+  "coder/claudecode.nvim",
+  dependencies = { "folke/snacks.nvim" },
+  opts = {
+    terminal_cmd = "/path/to/your/claude", -- Use output from 'which claude'
+  },
+  config = true,
+  keys = {
+    -- Your keymaps here
+  },
+}
+```
+
+</details>

+> **Note**: If Claude Code was installed globally via npm, you can use the default configuration without specifying `terminal_cmd`.

+
+#### Diff Options
+
+The `diff_opts` configuration allows you to customize diff behavior:
+
+- `keep_terminal_focus` (boolean, default: `false`) - When enabled, keeps focus in the Claude Code terminal when a diff opens instead of moving focus to the diff buffer. This allows you to continue using terminal keybindings like `<CR>` for accepting/rejecting diffs without accidentally triggering other mappings.
+
+**Example use case**: If you frequently use `<CR>` or arrow keys in the Claude Code terminal to accept/reject diffs, enable this option to prevent focus from moving to the diff buffer where `<CR>` might trigger unintended actions.

+require("claudecode").setup({

Subject: [PATCH 24/31] fix: do not wipe claude buffer on window close (native)
 (#60)

* fix: do not wipe claude buffer on window close

* fix tests

changes the expected value of 'wipe' to 'hide'.
Remove check for buffer options as they will be undefined, given that
`nvim_buf_set_option` will now have been called.

+Using auto-save plugins can cause diff windows opened by Claude to immediately accept without waiting for input. You can avoid this using a custom condition:

 ## Troubleshooting
 
 - **Claude not connecting?** Check `:ClaudeCodeStatus` and verify lock file exists in `~/.claude/ide/` (or `$CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR/ide/` if `CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR` is set)

Subject: [PATCH 27/31] refactor: centralize type definitions in dedicated
 types.lua module (#108)

# Centralize type definitions in a dedicated module

This PR introduces a new `types.lua` module that centralizes all type definitions for the ClaudeCode.nvim plugin. The change:

- Creates a dedicated `lua/claudecode/types.lua` file containing all public API types
- Removes inline type definitions from config.lua, init.lua, and logger.lua
- Updates type references across the codebase to use the new centralized types
- Improves type naming consistency with the `ClaudeCode` prefix (e.g., `ClaudeCodeConfig` instead of `ClaudeCode.Config`)
- Enhances type documentation with more detailed descriptions

This change makes the type system more maintainable and provides a single source of truth for the plugin's API types.

Subject: [PATCH 28/31] feat: add Claude Haiku model and update type
 annotations (#110)

# Update Claude model options and improve type annotations

This PR updates the available Claude models to include:
- Renamed "Claude Opus 4" to "Claude Opus 4.1 (Latest)"
- Added "Claude Haiku 3.5 (Latest)" as a new model option

Additionally, improves type safety throughout the codebase by:
- Adding proper type annotations for configuration parameters
- Adding explicit types for global variables
- Fixing function parameter types to use `ClaudeCodeConfig` where appropriate
- Properly documenting the `active_diffs` table with type information
- Removing an unnecessary timeout parameter in a callback function

Subject: [PATCH 30/31] refactor: simplify devcontainer configuration and
 remove workspace mount (#113)

# Simplify DevContainer Configuration

This PR streamlines the DevContainer setup by:

1. Standardizing indentation in the Dockerfile for better readability
2. Removing unnecessary workspace directory setup in the Dockerfile
3. Removing custom mount configuration in devcontainer.json
4. Improving formatting in devcontainer.json for better readability

These changes simplify the DevContainer configuration while maintaining the core functionality of the Nix-based development environment.

Subject: [PATCH 31/31] feat: add external provider to run Claude in separate
 terminal (#102)

* feat: add provider: external to run Claude in separate terminal

I think it's pretty convenient to have Claude running in a separate
window, separate from Neovim window. I think this is particularly useful on
tiling window managers.
